A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 465

Lily knows Tourmaline Community, which is a high-end residential area. She has made a bet with Lucy and won an apartment in the community. However, she gave it to John later.

Leigh owns a house there?

She thinks for a while and decides to give it a shot, asking, "Did you note down the number of that house?"

"Yes, I'll send it to you by email."

"Alright, thank you."

Lily quickly finishes her work and checks the email to get the house number. Afterwards, she tells Ella that she has to leave work early and walks out of the company.

On the way to Tourmaline Community, Lily calls the front desk of the Lewis Group to inquire about Leigh's whereabouts.

Leigh has gone to another province on a business trip and will be back at least three days later.

After arriving at the destination, Lily easily finds Leigh's villa with the help of the house number.

She sizes up the villa as she walks towards the gate.

The garden inside is well-tended with blooming roses, which seem to be pruned frequently. Lily can see servants working busily in the garden.

Leigh comes here only for a few times in a month, but the villa looks good and clean. Besides, the servants seem to live here. All this suggests that someone is living in the villa and needs looking after!

Lily concludes that Jessie must be here. Lily represses her excitement and rings the doorbell.

Soon a servant comes out.

The servant trots along the garden path to the gate and looks at Lily vigilantly, "Can I help you?"

"I'm Jessie's friend. Leigh said that Jessie didn't feel well, so I come to visit her," Lily replies carefully.

Afraid that the servant doesn't believe her, Lily shows the servant the photos she took with Leigh at Country R.

The servant lets her guard down at the sight of those photos.

"Wait a moment. I need to make a phone call."

Lily smiles, "He can't answer your phone call now. Didn't he tell you that he went to another province on business when he left? He probably is tied up in meetings now!"

"Mr. Leigh did say that he would be very busy these days."

Since Lily even knows Leigh's whereabouts, the servant believes that Leigh has indeed asked Lily to see Jessie. The servant completely dispels her doubts and opens the gate.

Lily casually asks as she follows the servant into the villa, "What a lovely day! Why doesn't Jessie come out for a walk?"

The servant sighs, "Miss Jessie seldom comes downstairs. She stays in her room all the day. Besides, she is in low spirits. We're worried that she will have a miscarriage."

Sure enough, Jessie is hidden here!

Lily suppresses her anger and says, "I'll try and straighten her out later."

"Thank you."

The servant leads Lily to the third floor and knocks on the door, "Miss Jessie, your friend is here to see you."

A few seconds later, a weak female voice comes from inside, "Come in."

The servant opens the door.

From the sighs of the servant, Lily can tell that Jessie is having a rough time.

Lily's heart aches when she sees Jessie's thin body and dull eyes after entering the room.

Jessie casually looks up, and her eyes widens in disbelief after she recognizes Lily.

Lily smiles at her.

Afterwards, Lily turns around and says to the servant, "You can go downstairs. We want to chat for a while."
